WASHINGTON, Nov. 22.-Lieut. Rich
ard A. Arnold, formerly of the district
police force, yesterday entered suit for
$4,000 damages for libel against Maj.
Samuel H. Walker, also formerly OF the

in sending to the district commissioners
and securing the publication of letter
charging the plaintiff with conspiracy
with two detective officers to injure the
police force by circulating false state
ments that the major of police had Or
dered an espionage to be placed on con-
gressmen who visited disreputable

much comment last November, and re-
suited in both officers named losing their
places. 1t is said that the trial will
bring forth some developments of sen
SatiOnal nature. At the trial before the
district commissioners year ago no
counsel were allowed to be present, and
it is alleged that evidence was excluded

Rival Opinions.

LONDON, Nov. 22.-Maj. Sanderson,
in speech at Nottingham to-day, de-
clared that Mr.. Gladstone's statement
that the murder of Constable Whelehan
was put up case was all absolute lie.
Mr.. Gladstone, he said, was at one end
of chain and Patrick Ford at the other
end. Sir William Vernon HarcOurt,
speaking at Morecombe this evening,
said that he did not see any signs that
the leaders of the dissidents we're alter
ing their ideas. but there had been q
shaking of the hands of their followers.
Lord Harrington had sought to comfort
the UniOnists by the statement that dis
solution was long way off. 1t was like
the voice of the old tempter, Thou
shalt not surely die,' and would be
equally falsified. 1t was the present
duty of the Liberals to prepare the
minds of the people for electoral issues.
There was great cause to reconcile two
kindred peoples between whom there
had been long standing hatred and ami
mostly. This would be the crowning
work of their great leader. Cheers.l
